I cannot be gay one moment and sad the next. Tell me how you manage it.","But who? Doatie will not dance with him, and Violet he never asks. I fell back, then, upon the woman who has so little malice in her heart that she could not be ungracious to any one. Against her will she read my desire in my eyes, and has so far sacrificed herself for my sake. I had no right to compel your wife to this satisfying of my vanity, yet I could not resist it. Forget it; the dance will soon be over."，"I know you are, and I admire your taste."，“Yes, very. We shook them into a basket.
